What is a "segment"?
A segment refers to one of the distinct sections that make up the internal structure of certain fruits, particularly citrus fruits like oranges and lemons. These fruits are composed of multiple segments, each containing juicy flesh with seeds or pulp. Segments are separated from each other by thin membranes and are easily separated when the fruit is peeled or cut open. They vary in size, shape, and arrangement depending on the fruit variety.
